Pause for a moment and ask yourself: does stress really
affect my health? If your answer is "No," think again. Medical
researchers estimate that up to 90% of illness and disease is stress-related.
Something as slight as a cold to the more crippling ailments of heart disease
and cancer can be stress's accomplices. Some claim that no matter what you
do-whether you work too much or not at all-you still accumulate tension at the
physical, mental, and emotional levels. While certainly yoga can help, stress
and tension run deep and may require more attention.
